Decided I have had enough of my debt!

Options
I have a few credit cards owing approx £6200 in total.

My biggest debt is my barclaycard £4700 at the moment. I have decided that I would like to clear all my card debt and stop spending on my cards.

I am planning on paying between £400 and £500 per month off my debt starting on my next pay day (end of June).

I can't wait until the day I can say I AM DEBT FREE :D

    Hi Nikki!

    Congrats on starting your debt free journey. Out of curiosity, how are finding the £400 each month to pay off your debt?

    I will be taking it from my monthly wages. It will be a struggle but I am going to try my best :-)
